Rafael Nadal is gearing up to compete at the upcoming US Open tournament. He will hope to win his third Grand Slam of the year.

The legendary Spaniard is a strong favorite heading into the US Open tournament. Nadal has been in scintillating form this season. He has already won four titles. Injuries have been troubling the 22-time Grand Slam champion, but he has fought through the pain and fans are expecting to see him win his fifth title at Flushing Meadows.

Nadal will open his US Open 2022 campaign against Australian youngster Rinky Hijikata on August 29. The 21-year-old will have a huge task ahead of him as he faces one of the all-time greats in the sport.

The southpaw has made some unprecedented records and possesses some mind-boggling skills on court but the same cannot be said about his social media skills. We don’t mind though as Nadal’s social media posts are absolutely genuine and natural. He recently tagged himself in his own Instagram story and fans had some interesting reactions to the incident.
